OKay, adding "ovarian cancer symptoms" to my list of anxiety.
Same 🤦🏽♀️
me right now 😅
literally me😞😞 and i don’t want to have that thing inside of me
Same 😩😭
How r u now than???
Survivor here - I had it at 24 and was misdiagnosed for 2 years (IBS, etc). Finally a doctor LISTENED to me and ordered a CA-125 test (numbers off the charts) and a CT scan confirmed tumors on both ovaries. I was stage 3C.. It’s been 15 years since then and I’m doing fine. There is hope! Know your body and listen to the voice that tells you something isn’t right -even when no one else does.
I was diagnosed with IBS too, but a lot of the symptoms sound similar I wonder if I should get that test? I’ve never heard of it
Thanks!!! @Queen Mem. I’ve had multiple polys in my uterus and multiple removal surgeries. Now, Once a year I get CA-125 and a complete pelvis ultrasound .
🙏🏼🙏🏼
@@Halimah525 that's the proper thing to do.. stay well
@Ysmine Agila just talk to your Dr about it. If it's not a normal thing for your body. It could just be a change in your diet you have not thought about.
Dear Scientist and researchers, We need a better way to test for ovarian, uterus and cervical cancers.......
cervical at least has pap smear. but ovarian, pretty sure they have to actually see the ovaries to know.
Cervical has a pap which is good- which is why a lot are caught early. My mom had uterine cancer and she was lucky enough to get an abnormal pap. More older women get uterine cancer and my mom knew something was wrong because she was having spotting and she had already gone through menopause. Or you can bleed between periods. And that happens with uterine cancer. So you know something is wrong at least. But yes, Ovarian cancer is also scary because there really aren’t any tests for it. I know someone who has stage 4 now with Ovarian cancer at 53 but she is in remission now, at least.
It seems like there are no advancements in diagnostic testing and innovation with these types of cancers. It would be nice to see a blood test developed that could indicate if the cancer is present and made available with routine exams. I just wonder if this is another case of less R&D funding in research for these areas because it only happens to women. There was an investigation many years ago concluding less funding, and visibility go to women issues vs men issues.
NON-INVASIVE please lol
They would have more funding if it wasn’t all going on Viagra and drugs for men
I just don't understand why a transvaginal ultrasound can't be part of your annual gynecological exam or at least performed every 2-3 years depending on family history. It can detect abnormalities on the ovaries and in the pelvis early. Ovarian cancer is like #5 on the list of cancer in women. Why can't we just figure out best practices already. Because what's being done now isn't working.
^ this
Ultrasound Tech here🙋🏻♀️ Couldn’t agree more! It should go along with your yearly gyn exam.
So true!!! And 3 D mammograms ! I had 3 call backs from regular ones and I thought I was going to die … with 3D they can see everything clearly .. everyone deserves those !
@@thekrayonkidsbookadventures 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Right. Well I actually I went to Mexico. Got my annual check up there. To my surprise after a pap a vaginal ultrasound to see ovaries!!! Never in the US have they done that😞 in Mexico at least where I went it's protocol.
I was 25 and had the symptoms, but Drs told me I was too young. When they finally ordered the scan the tumor was 13cm and in stage 1C. Now I’m almost done with chemotherapy and looking to a better future.
How old were you when they ordered the scan?
@@ClayMastah344 26. The Dr ordered it because I was in a lot of pain and my abdomen was swollen
@@emiroche95 I’m so glad you’re feeling better now, blessings and light
What kind of scan? @emily
@@Adrianam1994 a endovaginal ultrasound and later a CT Scan of the pelvis and abdomen
Ladies, I admittely have mocked symptoms to get pelvic ultrasounds. If you feel you want an ultrasound, tell your doctor you are having intense pain in your pelvic region. They will indeed get you an ultrasound if you say you have these issues. I do it every few years.
It’s sad our healthcare system sucks so bad that’s necessary. Do what you need to do to get a decent check up!
Do you say this to a primary doctor or gynecologist?
@@shelly7160 say to both!
@@shelly7160gynecologist would be best, but your primary care doctor is okk too
I had all those symptoms and was diagnosed last week with stage 2 ovarian cancer. It may seem hard to differentiate between these symptoms being cancer or something less bad, but maybe this will help: It's not normal bloating, it's heavy and strange, like being bloated with a solid instead of a gas. All these symptoms appear one after the other, and they stay and they get worse and worse very quickly, like a matter of 1 or 2 months. I went to the ER because the pain was so severe I couldn't sleep, I was eating one thing a day and then the vomiting started. Trust your body. Never hurts to get checked anyways!
The comment I was looking for thank you and I hope you’re well
Hope you pull through thanks for sharing your experience ❤
how are you ?
your comment will help many
In the United States women are treated like livestock in the medical world. If you want something done you need to request it. If your doctor doesn't listen to you, you need to get a different doctor. If your doctor tells you you're being dramatic, that's a bad doctor. Women, we MUST advocate for ourselves. Be that squeaky wheel in your doctor's office, it can save your life!
I’m tired of advocating and getting nowhere. Let’s just fire doctors and remove their licenses finally.
I was a squeaky wheel and not disrespectful about it. It was the receptionist that didn’t like that I spoke up. She lied about things I did or said and I have been without a doctor since 2018. I was under treatment for 2 medical problems. Left untreated.
They are all incompetent. I had to go to Bangkok to get my hypothyroidism diagnosed. My doctors called me depressed
In Canada too. I’m tired of having to fight with doctor after doctor, I’d rather just die at this point
Agreed, too much greed in the United States that often excludes the value of patient and provider relationships.
I just got done with ovarian cancer surgery and chemo I believe it was from using the estrogen patch for too long my dr did not monitor just kept filling the Rx ... and I used powder as well ...I also got a major blood infection from the port and was hospitalized...I have white knuckle it for 3 years now and now on the other side of that mountain ...I am doing everything in my power to stay healthy and balance physical mentally and spiritually I am 66 getting. Back to a good life again stay strong women
Praying for your recovery!
Many PRAYERSNLUV 👼👼✝️✝️
I will be praying for your continued recovery!!
My mom is 66. She was diagnosed at 63 with OC. She got OC because she use HRT for 6 yrs and then her dr retired. New dr said no don’t take HRT. The dr took her off cold Turkey. Stupid idea. One yr later cancer diagnosis stage 3 ovarian cancer. Thx to that dr. Doing treatments but less and less works.
Fishing up Chemo this week due to Ovarian Cancer !! I am 35, don’t let doctors tell you, you are to young for cancer. When something feels wrong, listen to your body. Thankfully, I was diagnosed at Stage 1 , had surgery, chemo as reoccurrence prevention, and now showing no sign of the disease. Ask for CA 125 blood test. Couldn’t have made it through this without Jesus !! Also nausea is a symptom. The tumor I had was high grade (aggressive), so it blocked my urinary system, and was having hard time urinating (was being referred to a urologist). Until one day I couldn’t urinate at all and had to go to ER. After a urinary catheter and CAT scan, it was found. Only reason it was caught early!!
@aNgÉlica dEl ciELo Yes praise God!! I am healed and recovered now!! Will be praying for you Angelica.. whatever happens just don’t give up hope. God’s got you ❤️🙌🏽

Too bad most of us don’t have health insurance or access to affordable healthcare, it’s the American dream
Well, you can move to Canada and you will get taxed up to your ovaries.
Didn't Obama Care fix that
@@michellemaria7154 Ha! The ACA is anything but, especially if you’ve been unemployed because of COVID. My brother is a small business owner and he couldn’t afford it for his family of 4. He got on a Christian co-op thing. Sort of like the Mennonites have.
@@absatwell8163 what are you talking about?anyone who does not make alot of money get free heslthcare!!! Thankyou Obama
@@absatwell8163 , well at least you have a chance at a timely diagnosis and treatment. As long as one sees where their tax money is going, why not ?

In America, especially before Obamacare: no medical insurance or money to pay for services… you’re on your own. What a cold country America can be. America, the beacon of hope ? Really ?!
We need earlier detection for cancers. Why are we waiting for 40 for a mammogram and 50 for a colonoscopy?
@Jules Elyse and there you have it. Insurance companies want to control your health. I worked with a woman whose daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer at 27. Cancer does not discriminate. Whenever there is an issue no matter what age, insurance should approve and not deny testing or treatment.
Because earlier mammograms were causing lots of interventions due to noncancerous incidental findings AND not making a difference in lives saved. If you have a family history, gene mutation, or other higher risks, your doctor can order one at any age. Many start with an ultrasound.
If you have a history of cancer you can start getting annual screenings much earlier! I started at the age of 30. Insurance paid fully.
Insurance companies being cheap and cancer is a money maker.
Due to insurance companies!! I am in healthcare and some big companies now want Dr’s to do Pap smears every five years. Knowing that HPV is on a rise and causes cervical cancer smh.
Sadly the symptoms are vague and there are no tests to catch it early.
Get tested for BRCA mutations.
Meet your gynecologist and request for the blood test CA 125.
My mom had ovarian cancer so I just get my CA125 checked at my yearly, it’s a simple blood test.
@@katylee1914 Interesting, I just looked it up and it's a test to see the amount of cancer antigens present. This antigen is specific to ovarian cancer. (Sorry, if you already know this, just wanted to share if you didn't).
@Here Wego Thank you for sharing this information & my condolences.
My college roommate passed away at 46 years old. She was misdiagnosed with IBS for a year and was stage 4 when it was finally directly diagnosed. Such a tragic loss of my dear friend. She had most all the symptoms. She was also adopted and found out later in life that her biological mother died of breast and ovarian. So important to check family history. Very informative- hope this helps to save more lives!
Wow.
Extensively times that step we are afraid to take might Just be the right one. Thank you, Dr igho for your Inducement and for not allowing me down throughout the whole revolution. Your Medication that I am Delighted I came across your Channel.
Can everyone who has been diagnosed please write down the symptoms they had in this thread below, how ever minor or little the symptoms were I think it will help everyone reading or even save a life, Thankyou
:-
Yes please, I’d like to see lists if early symptoms as well 🙏
Bloating and heartburn were my only symptoms, my Dr would encourage me to give up coffee and spicy food. This never worked. I ended up in the ER with lower abdominal pain and was ordered a CT scan with contrast. My diagnosis, stage 3 ovarian cancer at the age of 46!
I’m sorry you had to go through that! Did they get it together and are u feeling better nowadays??
I had bad bloating and burping. Stomach felt like I was riding a roller coaster (80 ft drop) even when I was sitting still or laying down…
I had to BEG my doctor to see why. He kept writing me off and even suggested I go see a mental health specialist. Come to find out I had h pylori. Which is a very annoying and painful stomach virus.
If not treated it can lead to stomach cancer and other illnesses.. I still have a knot in my belly I can feel it and now it’s being ignored and written off.. it’s so hard trying to be taken serious and get the treatment needed nowadays. I pray for everyone dealing with scary health issues, Good luck to you💙💙
@@Common_sense_commentary I am better, my last chemo was in August 2017, my CA 125 have been normal so far and I they ran a DNA screen for known mutations to rule out genetic risks.
I wish you the best, sometimes I feel that women of color are not taken seriously by the medical professionals, this is unfortunately another factor.
@@MariaPerez-ki5kt So glad you're in remission! I have a pelvic ultrasound in 4 days due to persistent bloating that I noticed a few months ago. I'm genuinely terrified but hoping for the best
Ive had heartburn since my 20s
@@buzzlightyearandco hi…. How are you doing now?
The never given birth “risk” is misleading. Researchers have no concrete proof its a risk and its only a theory. In saying that, asking to get tested or examine never hurts. ♥️♥️
My grandma passed away from this and out of the risk factors listed here she only had one, old age. She was 76 when she passed, I was there when she took her last breath at home. I remember it happened very suddenly, one minute she was totally fine and then the next she was bedridden at home under hospice care.
Thats why they did a lot of hysterectomy back then but thats not the solution as well
Many PRAYERSNLUV 👼👼✝️✝️
OMG 😱 So sorry for your loss 😢
I was diagnosed with Stage 4 ovarian in December 2022. Symptoms were subtle until November, when I fell ill and my whole abdomen became very bloated. Cancer showed up on CT in the ER. Prognosis not good. Cancer has spread to organs and in chest cavity. That dr needs to correct herself. Ovarian cancer affects many young women too, as young as 15. Many young women misdiagnosed because of this assumption.
I pray your doing well
@@yooooitsjustacomment Thank you for your thoughtfulness. Every day is a new day and I try to start it with the best of intentions. 😊
@@SeaTurtle515 I'm glad to here it I wish you many more blessings to come ♥️♥️♥️
Blessed to have my mom with me today she's a survivor of ovarian cancer and the dr caught in time she definitely looked bloated and couldn't even walk I was in elementary school when she got diagnosed but the dr caught on time it's one of the silence killer that many dk because it is hard to detect and honestly I would love to get tested for the brca test just to see but I at least know it's part of my family history
It is your choice but I don't reccomend getting the brca gene test in America. When my mother was being treated for breast cancer, her oncologist said if I get the test and it's positive, insurance companies can use that against you, plus why do you even need to know? What would you do differently? Nothing. Still just go for screenings, try to to eat right, exercise, etc. Only wealthy celebrities like Angelina Jolie could afford to take aggressive proactive measures like remove breasts and reproduction organs. Btw, very happy your mom is ok. My mom is now cancer free 13 years, so grateful.
I had a probe they inserted inside of me to do an ultrasound to rule out cysts/cancer. I was bleeding inbetween my periods. The ultrasound should be a part of a yearly gyno exam. Period.
Same here and YES
You are correct vaginal ultrasound should be mandatory.
Yes!! Make it as important as pap smears.
@@nopressurenodiamonds5566 if you have large tumors or growths, it shows. You could see everything clearly on the screen. Maybe at the beginning stages it's not visible.
@@nopressurenodiamonds5566 Yes, in most cases. Something has to be done to better prevent late stage cancer.
Well sad you can discuss this with your doctor and they literally brush it right off. I was concerned years ago because I had all these symptoms for atleast a year and nothing . I went out and got the A125 my self. They were tiny bit elevated but after numerous u/s for infertility it was ok. I started having symptoms again this year but we actually had to end up focusing more on my uterus. Happy to have a gyno that is much more attentive now
I had a coworker who died at 38 in 2008 of ovarian cancer. She kept thinking she was having just increased problems with hemorrhoids. She had surgery to have them removed. She was still having problems. Turned out it was cancer. She also had lost about 10 pounds without knowing it. She just couldn’t eat as much. Then one day she got real bloated all of a sudden. After that she had to take a medical leave and within 3 or 4 months she was gone.
Very sad.
Wow 🥺
I have very low appetite but i th I k it's from stress. I should get a pap smear tho
oh my gosh - how awful. To think that she may still be alive if she'd been diagnosed sooner makes this even more painful to think about.
🤧🙏Aww RIP
I know they keep saying it's rare among young women but the sheer amount of anecdotal accounts I've read about of women in their 20s and 30s getting it suggests it's definitely something younger women can be affected by too. Keep pushing your doctors to get the right diagnostic tests if you suspect something is up, no matter how old you are.
I highly recommend Dr. Osaka on RUclips channel, who helped me in getting rid of my Cancer and my wife from Breast cancer, It was Amazing seeing the both of us free from the deadly diseases with the help of Dr. Osaka natural herbal remedy, I'm forever grateful to the Doctor.☘☘☘

A lot of those symptoms are common with PMS or during ovulation based on my experience.

@Ysmine Agila sometimes it will change and be a week early or week late. That’s happened to me like once a year whenever I’m under a lot of stress. Hope you feel better soon!
Sometimes doctors just care about your concerns. I was have terrible chronic pain on the left side of pelvis and my doctor did a ultrasound that day. He couldn't even find my left ovary. Zero concern about that even with my pain being on that side. He actually said "not worried, it's in there somewhere. But I'mprettysure the pain you are having is IBS" and he walked out and that was that. Fast forward 8 months and I have a horrible fall and thought I proke my hip. They did a CT scan in the er and luckily my hip was all food but I had a 7cm "hemorrhagic" cyst on my right ovary that I would have to have removed asap because of the possibility of it rupturing and me losing a massive about of blood. Go back to that same doctor because I didn't have time to get a new doctor and all that. And guess what else he found during my surgery? That's right, my left ovary! Where was it you ask? IT WAS ADHERED TO AND WRAPPED AROUND MY COLON! My chronic "ibs" pain was actually my left ovary and fallopian tube being constantly pulled and twisted by my always moving intestines! So yea...glad it wasn't anything more serious than that.
Woww…
Omg 😧
I have had constant right side pelvic pain for a couple weeks now. You’ve given me hope that it may not be cancer!
"All the other factors that determine the treatment course" meaning whether your heartless health insurance will pay for any of the effective treatments.
Exactly
Exactly. Nothing more American than dying from lack of healthcare. Or having to beg for your life on GoFundMe.
And my dr didn’t see anything on the ultrasound thank goodness he listened to my symptoms and me and he did experimental surgery anyway and found lesions and removed them.
Great, one more thing to be worried about! 😣
I have every single one of the symptoms and risk factors, save for two: I'm not Jewish and have never had cancer myself. Jeez. Too bad my insurance SUCKS
Insurance companies are counting on you dying before they have to pay a lot.
Nice and quick.
I live in Ireland, my sister died from Ovarian cancer in 1998.. She had all the symptoms above.. She had no children & was over the age of 35.. I now see my Gynecologist once a year for a vaginal scan or regular tummy scan to check my ovaries.. I also get my bloods done once a year..

Not to spook ya, but ovarian cancer is often misdiagnosed as IBS, before the symptoms get really severe. You know your body, if IBS doesn't seem right, speak out and demand pelvic / transvaginal ultrasound.

Please help your subscribers more effectively.This is a killer decease.If diagnose early chances are there to recover.Please educate them about CA 125.Thank you.
I proactively had my fallopian tubes removed because I wanted to lower my risk of ovarian cancer. I was done having children so I thought it made sense. They think often ovarian cancer originates in the fallopian tubes and having them removed further reduces your risk of developing ovarian cancer.
Does tying the tubes help or do they need to be removed?
I’ve had a tubal but the left side of my ovaries I’m having pain and I feel super bloated to the point my back hurts
She didn’t mention about how hpv increases your risk for ovarian cancer if not treated. My grandma passed away from ovarian cancer, my sisters and I ended up getting the hpv vaccine to try to prevent getting hpv which can cause ovarian cancer.
Dammm I have inactive hpv :( I'm 23 now but when I first asked for vaccine when I was 19 they told me I was too old wtf
@@Vampybattie 23? tell your obgyn that you want to get the hpv vaccine the recommended age is between 12 to 26 I got mine when I was 19 and I’m currently 21. They shouldn’t deny your request.
There’s no treatment for hpv. Just close analysis making sure it doesn’t develop into cervical cancer.
Preventative of the cancer causing hpv is the vaccine.
Let’s not forget that there are roughly 80-90 strands of hpv which have severe to no consequences.
Too late for me.im 29
There are MANY different strains of hpv around 100 different strains, so this means even though you may get the hpv shot, it won’t stop you from getting it!! The shot only protects against 4 strains!! 😁 so that leaves 96 out there to still get!! Only way to prevent is to keep them legs CLOSED!!
I think it's important to notice changes. These symptoms are vague, but are they a change from normal?
I literally have every symptom
My mother passed away at 32 years old from ovarian cancer. She was gone within 3 months of her diagnosis. I was only 2, so it’s not like she hadn’t seen a doc.
My doc told me that she may have had leftover tissue from a miscarriage and that can rapidly cause ovarian cancer.

Ladies, please get yearly ultrasounds that is the only way . There are no symptoms. I know from my own experience.
Every year !! PREVENTION IS KEY ??? TREATMENT IS TOO LATE...
@Watching Ancestors ultrasounds is not supposed to stop it! It lets you know there is a polyp before it turns into cancer duh..
@Watching Ancestors Perhaps she means by getting your annual ultrasounds, blood work, MRI's in some cases, you can catch cancer in its' early stages, thus preventing it from spreading uncontrollably and taking your life earlier than later. Also, why are you being so harsh?
@Watching Ancestors she means catch the cancer early before it’s terminal ❤️
@Watching Ancestors you're taking what she said too literally. What she means is if you catch it early by getting ultrasounds often, you can potentially prevent the spread. The way it's worded is not the best, but I catch the drift of what she meant. I don't know why you have to be so harsh.
Endometriosis has many of the symptoms (which I have)

Interesting, first time I hear of that symptom.
Really? I did not know that!

If we could only figure out a way to put the health of people above the cost....or lower costs so insurance companies don't deny necessary testing.
Have an NHS 😎👍
I had an ovarian tumor the size of a football. If during annual exams if they did an ultrasound with the wand inserted into vagina , they would find majority of cases.
Hi I’m very confused. I’ve been seeing a GI doctor for my stomach pain. I’ve been bloating and extreme pain in my abdomen. I had a pelvic ultrasound by my OBGYN, normal. I had an abdominal ultrasound, normal. Since my results were normal All he gave me was Nexium to try for 14 days. It’s day 11 and I don’t feel any relief. Should I demand an MRI or a CT scan? At this point I don’t care if I have to scream at them because none of the advice and medicine they give me is working. I know something isn’t right.
I had all of these issues and it was my gallbladder, had it removed back in April and am feeling much better. Also stomach pain can be pancreatitis, I had that once also, there is a simple blood test to see if your lipase is raised which happens with pancrntitis and or gallbladder issues and a Hida scan to see if your gallbladder is low functioning.
I would definitely recommend an MRI or CT scan (with contrast) if I were you, to rule out non ovarian cancer possibilities. If you suspect ovarian cancer it’s best to start with a CA-125 blood test. When ovarian cancer is super advanced though and if there are no localized tumors and the mass is spread throughout the abdomen, only a PET scan will detect it. My aunt was diagnosed with stage 3C ovarian cancer in February after she had a bowel obstruction caused by her mass; she needed emergency surgery. When they opened her up they saw the cancer throughout her abdominal cavity. She refused to get a PET scan to see how extensive it was (she is afraid of radiation and also only wanted to go the all natural/alternative route). Her doctor ordered an MRI w/contrast at my aunts request and they could not see the cancer (even though we know from her surgeons notes it was literally everywhere).
Yes, go to the ER if you have to for a CT scsan

Ultrasounds catches it before it is actual cancer is what I mean. I know from my own experience. That is why I recommend it and I have the advice from oncology nurses who get ultrasounds themselves. You have to get cancer BEFORE it begins. Once cancer is on its way...... you are done... ultrasounds find polyps that can be removed before it becomes cancer.. get it??

Q
Intra vaginal or abdominal
I can't believe there is still no cure for cancer cause the sad thing is that there is nothing we can do to get rid of cancer
For my mom it was not surgery only chemotherapy i understand why. Can you help me? I can send you CT scans.
Nice
What tests are done to disgnose overian cancer
I'm having alot of these symptoms.
Ugh so many type of cancer 🙄 I don't even care anymore lol
Braca 1 testing ain’t cheap
Gotta love the dismissive md
hmm, for 40 years my Mom was prescribed estrogens. After she gave birth because she was told she had a "hysterectomy" and it was needed. To the same Dr's surprise when he diagnosed her with stage 3 Ovarian Cancer 40 years later. He told my Mom and me something isn't right because he removed her Ovaries! Mom said, no you didn't!! And then... He said.. I would have never prescribed estrogens... He stopped, and got her files faxed right over!! We waited! Mom was correct... He was wrong!! SOB He was wrong!!

Ladies, if you have insurance, go to the ER, give them all the symptoms above, they will run all kind of tests, at medical city, they have a flat fee for peoppe without insurance, 500 to pay within 30days, best of luck ladies
CA-125 at 70 ( norm is up to 35 ) should I worry? It will be ages before I be able to get the scan and wonder if I should o private to speed this up?
It's obvious some people with cancer are being enslaved to the antiviral and other supplementary Orthodox medicine just to help suppress the problem and not a cure. I have been with the cancer since 2018 until I was cured of cancer after using DR RORPOPOR herbal on RUclips herbal Medicine. Contact him
So blood test nor urine test can detect it?
No

Im 42 and for 2 years i have had bilateral complex ovarian cyst about 11 cm on each side and my gynecologist told me that they looked fine that they didn't look like they were metastasizing to anything they weren't growing outside of the where they were so it definitely wasn't cancer so we scheduled to have a surgery done 211 and he referred me to the gynecologist oncologist ladies be your own Advocate if you feel like something's wrong push it if your doctor isn't listening to you you are absolutely Within you are right to get a second opinion get a second opinion
Carson Daly looks so awkward sitting right between the women having this discussion. lol
he always looks constipated. you should have seen him when he first started on MTV.
He always looks awkward on tv these days. The only time he didn’t look awkward on tv were during his trl days. Anyone remember the name of the hot British host who used to do trl before Carson took over? 🤔
@Cr****92 I couldn't tell you his marital status. I don't keep up with such things.
I can only assume without knowing. Might be related to the convo, might be his producer talking in his ear about something else unrelated, or telling him NOT to interject. Who knows? lol
I think the fact that you say you're comfortable and yet refer to them as "woman things" might speak for itself. Yes, it is biology, but not everyone is comfortable listening to those stories, much less engaging in the conversation.
I remember one of my coworkers telling me about breastfeeding her son (many years earlier, as he was 8 at the time) and describing how she was afraid she was going to suffocate him. Now, I wasn't uncomfortable or embarrassed by the conversation, but I was very busy and I felt this was an inappropriate topic to be discussing in the workplace. I'm female, we were both in management, and it just seemed like a topic that didn't need to be discussed when there was much work to be done. Yes, it's biology and totally healthy and natural, but this wasn't a problem that needed solving (since this was a story from 8 years earlier) and why bring this up at work anyway?
There are few things I love more than a baby, anybody's baby, but I just saw it as an odd topic to bring up at the time (and place). Now, if someone had to bring their baby to work, they can put that baby in my office ANY TIME. I will make sure that baby is safe, nurtured, diapered, and loved on. That baby won't want to leave. lol
I'm much more tolerant of baby's and little ones than adults.
@@mrs.elizabethdarcyladyofpe1288 I lived in Manhattan at that time and vaguely remember TRL, but I don't remember any hot British host.
@@jones2277 I lived in NYC back at that time and rarely ever caught the "shows" on Mtv. I was more interested in the music videos and Beavis & Butthead, not so much the "shows".
I have mostly all the symptoms but when I do the check up with scanning and everything but the doctor said it's nothing and there is a time I was admitted to the hospital cuz of stomach pain but the doctor just said it's bcuz of my digestion problem but still it worried me since I only have my period once a year with other medical condition 😔
@@nikki08801 when to the doctor & in my country I can't do pap smear since I'm not married yet so just do the usual, scanning. So, for now the doctor just prescribe birth control pills & will meet again another appointment to see the progress 🤷🏻♀️😔
I have experienced all of it except that i am not a woman.
Then u should check your prostate
Abnormal vaginal bleeding? Wow that's really weird
Why not do yearly ovarian unlearn sound
They don’t pay for that, only mammograms
I have all this
I only have one ovary due to a baseball sized cyst. I'm thinking I need to just go ahead and have the other removed now.
They found “something” on one of my ovaries and I begged and had them both removed (well, everything removed). I lost my mom to ovarian cancer in 1989, she was 42. I was 42 when they found this growth. I just *knew* it was cancer. Thankfully I was wrong but I’ve never regretted my total hysterectomy. Whatever “it” was to me was the “it” that comes *before* precancerous and I am very lucky that my hyper vigilance found it. Now I’m 49 and still on hormone replacement therapy and it looks like I need to go off that too! Just in case!
@@FicGhostWriter so sorry about your mom. I have a cyst on my other ovary so I should just probably go ahead and get it removed. I'm only 37 though so I don't really want to start menopause yet.
Will a smear test detect ovarian cancer
How am I suppose to request a test to be done if the doctor refuses to refer me over to a specialist because he believes it’s not “medically necessary” I have sharp shooting pains and sometimes I have to hunch over to try to control the pain. I want to cry .
Go to the ER and request scans.
i'm adopted. i don't know anything. every illness is a crap shoot. i'm having symptoms and i'm scared it's going to be ovarian or colon. cancer is such BS.
Could sudden weight gain be one of the symptoms
Could be i think... I'm having most of the symptoms however i didn't lose weight instead sudden weight gain
Anyone bleeding a lot during ovulation? Is that normal? I don't know what's normal anymore.
No that’s not normal!!!
Yes! I've been getting spotting during ovulation for a few months now! Even outside of ovulation! Now I'm going back to my GP to ask to see a gyno since my smear + bloods came back normal 😭
My manager just got diagnosed by pap smear but had no symptoms that she's aware of. Thars scary because she had no idea. She will get a hysterectomy and probably other treatment.
At this point i'm still very shocked with the negative result I got after suffering from PCOS for so long. Thanks once again DR RORPOPOR HERBAL on RUclips for your natural supplements.......💞

No historectomy😞‼️
What can I say? Feeling how the bloating and pain receded within approximately two months made all the difference, I used what discussed the other day, well, it really took about 10 weeks for it to totally shrink and vanish. I just go’ogled Tilly Strankten's Cyst Guide and it's like I hit the feel-good reset button lol.
My heart is full of joy and excitement , DR RORPOPOR HERBAL is truly the son of his father the medications I order from him can testified to that , A BIG thanks to you doctor for making me cancer negative completely without any side effects💋💋
just wondering about Endrometrio cancer.. that is so hard to detect or diagnose..
I had it. If you have irregular bleeding, especially after menopause, go directly to your GYN. Early treatment is important.
@@ellenflanagan2220 but if i already have irregular bleeding without menopause, what then?
@@aj-sz8mu Get an exam
Cervical smear test. Abnormal smear. Saw Gynaecologist and had the cysts removed. Phew.
The ultrasound didn’t show anything abnormal.
All i experienced was leg pain.

Never giving birth? What's that mean?
A woman who has never had children is supposedly at risk.
The symptoms most women have. This was too misleading, no thank you! 👎🏻
Better to be safe than sorry
Yes but if there Consistant for weeks then it’s a concern and no normal
This and colon cancer I found out today runs in my family, I’m 28 and have only seen a gyno once (at least 2 years ago) but I have had many of these symptoms for the past year and recently they’ve gotten much worse after some stress and now I have developed consistent pain in my pelvic/groin area and nausea, increased vaginal discharge and very minor urine incontinence (is this normal for my age?), slight bleeding between periods, intermittent constipation and urgent diarrhea and I have lost 20lbs in the past month. Im not bloated though. I’m so scared of going to see the doctor about it as cancer is my worst fear and I’m really hoping this is just stress and a bladder infection lol
Please go see a doctor. I know it’s scary, but it’s better to check it out, as there could be other issues that are easier to solve. Plus, you’ll have more peace of mind if it ends up being less serious. Tell them all these symptoms and the timeline, especially about your sudden weight loss, since this will indicate that tests should be done quickly. Best of luck to you, friend.
How are you doing ?
How are you now dear? My grandma passed away from colon cancer and I have frequent small cysts on my ovaries. I had appendicitis 2 years ago and now I'm constantly having issues like constipation, weight gain and bloating, I've gained 10 pounds in 2 months and i can hardly eat, so it doesn't make sense. Just seeing your symptoms - I hope you're ok!
Guys sitting there quietly in the begining.
I highly recommend Dr. Osaka on RUclips channel, who helped me in getting rid of my Cancer and my wife from Breast cancer, It was Amazing seeing the both of us free from the deadly diseases with the help of Dr. Osaka natural herbal remedy, I'm forever grateful to the Doctor.🍀🍀☘

Girl same
I'm almost 18
I would suggest you get a scan or smth
PC dialysis. . . Finds cyst and abbreviated NQThC
I met NONE of those !
You’re right, feeling how it began to shrink and eventually disappear within 2 months was so liberating. I followed the steps I mentioned, and within the first 2 weeks the bloating was gone. I simply go'ogled Tilly Strankten's Ovarian Cyst Guide and it's like I hit the feel-good reset button lol.
mRNA spike protein concentrates in the ovaries- you’re welcome
No, it does not.
I heard that too.
